[Moo] [Watchtower] OT: Hospice Thrift Store Donations

[Laurie Clarkston]

You would have to contact them directly.  I know that they do several different types of fund raisers, like the Magnolia Ball.

Their main number is 540-710-0480.  BTW, there are two hospice support groups in the F'burg area.  This one continues to work with patients after their insurance runs out. The other one does not.

Hello there,

My son is just finishing up his Eagle Project and collected a TON of clothing for the Salvation Army.  They were not his first choice, but the first organizations he called were so rude to him that he refused to collect for them.  It's great to read that an organization is composed of good, caring people who want to help.  

I have two more young men looking for Eagle projects (one in my Troop and one who lives across the street from us) -- is Magnolia interested in that kind of help?

This is a wonderful place to take your donations.  I have been doing this for years and the ladies there are very nice and helpful.  I have also bought lovely things from them as well.  

I will take my clothing items to Goodwill and my household items to the Magnolia Thrift Store. 

If you have ever had a family member or friend use Hospice, you know how helpful they are not only to that person, but to the family members as well.  

Not too many people realize that Hospice will bill your insurance company for their services, and when the Insurance company services run out and they stop paying, Hospice still provides those services at no charge.  The donations to the Thrift Store are use to pay their staff, buy medical equipment (like hospital beds to loan out) and supplies to keep them operating.

I'm looking for donations of mundane household items - if you are not interested, please delete.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We are all used to donating medieval items for silent auctions but now I have a place you can donate your modern items.

In conjunction with my workplace, I am organizing donations of household items for the Magnolia Thrift Store in Fredericksburg, VA. The Magnolia Thrift Store helps finance the work of Hospice Support Care, Inc., a United Way organization. 

We are collecting furniture, dishes, decor items, books, shoes, purses, backpacks, lamps, toys, dishes, pots, cutlery, small appliances, and seasonal holiday items.

We cannot accept clothing, large household appliances, or electronics.

If you would like to donate something, please get it to me at Storvik Novice, the Millers' on Sunday, or contact me for alternate arrangements. 

You can even meet me (Lisa Mitchell) or one of my coworkers (Judy Beck) at our office (Intuit, 114 Juliad CT, Fredericksburg, VA 22406), Monday - Friday, 9 am to 5 pm, through June 25th.

Donation receipts are available if I know in advance so I can bring the form.

Questions? Want to donate something? Let me know at 571-438-1803.

Thank you for your time,

Ceridwen
